Impressive performance. We saw "the dark side of the moon" by Pink Floyd with a magnificent all-round view and Dolby 19.1 sound. This is an experience not to be missed if you like Pink Floyd.

Very nice and contemplative place! We rolled around in the beanbags as if it had been our bed in Porto!

The planetarium is simply brilliant! The flying images through space on the curved 360-degree screen dome are very impressive
